When you ask "What number is halfway between 56 and 171?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=56 and Y=171.
To find the number halfway between 56 and 171, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 56 and 171 into our formula, we get:
(56 + 171)/2 = 113.5
Thus, the number halfway between 56 and 171 is 113.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 56 from 113.5 and subtract 113.5 from 171 and compare the two numbers:
113.5 - 56 = 57.5
171 - 113.5 = 57.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 57.5 higher than 56 and 57.5 lower than 171. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 113.5 above is correct.
